4 I will incline my ear to a parable;I will expound my riddle with a harp.
5 Why should I fear in the days of evil,when the iniquity of my stalkers surrounds me?
6 Those who trust in their wealth,and boast in the multitude of their riches,
7 none of them can by any means redeem the other,nor give to God a ransom for anyone,
8 for the redemption of their souls is costly;even so people cease to exist forever,
9 making efforts to live eternally,and not see the pit.
10 For one sees that wise men die,together the fool and the brute perish,and leave their wealth to others.
